    摘要: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture for performing data insertion in compressed audio/video data streams are disclosed. An example method disclosed herein to insert audience measurement data in a compressed media data stream comprises rearranging data in frames of the compressed media data stream to form contiguous sequences of skip bytes at respective locations in the frames of the compressed media data stream, the audience measurement data to be inserted in the compressed media data stream at the locations of the contiguous sequences of skip bytes, the contiguous sequences of skip bytes having respective lengths, and inserting different types of audience measurement data at the locations of the contiguous sequences of skip bytes in two different frames of the compressed media data stream based on the respective lengths of the contiguous sequences of skip bytes in the two different frames of the compressed media data stream.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture to monitor streaming media content are disclosed. An example method disclosed herein to monitor streaming media content comprises extracting metering data having a first format from media content to be provided to a content presentation device via a transport stream, the extracted metering data identifying at least one of the media content or a source of the media content, the extracted metering data not being decodable by a meter associated with the content presentation device, transcoding the extracted metering data to form transcoded metering data having a second format decodable by the meter associated with the content presentation device, and encoding the transcoded metering data into a metadata channel to send the transcoded metering data to the content presentation device, the metadata channel being associated with the transport stream.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus to monitor advertisement exposure are disclosed. An example method includes determining via a meter that a media content segment was presented at a media content presentation device and determining via an activity monitor different than the meter that a computing resource related to the media content segment was accessed by outputting an indication of an association between the computing resource access and the media content presentation after the presentation of the media content segment.
